Sell old gold near me — broken pieces welcome
Snapped chains, coins, unused sets — weight and purity are what count. The counter is at 116/1 Erukkenchery High Road.
Sri Lakshmi Aurum has bought old and broken gold at 116/1 Erukkenchery High Road since 1996. People arrive with a chain that snapped, a single earring, or coins from a drawer. We do not ask you to make the piece look new. If you are in Vyasarpadi or the neighbourhoods we list, this is the doorway; if you are farther away, a trusted buyer closer to you is the better choice.
Sell broken gold jewellery — chains, rings, necklaces
You can sell broken gold jewellery, sell a broken gold chain, sell a broken gold ring, or sell a broken gold necklace as they are. Sell broken gold and silver in the same visit if both are in the bag. A longer note lives on the broken-gold guide.
What we buy
- Chains, necklaces and fragments — including KDM and old non-hallmarked gold
- Bangles, rings, studs, and single earrings
- Coins and small bars that you want to sell, not remake
- Temple jewellery and unused sets, tested the same way
How a sale works at the counter
- You sit at the counter. The piece stays in front of you.
- We draw it across the touchstone so you see the streak.
- The electronic scale is zeroed; you read the display.
- We explain the offer: net weight, tested purity, day’s market. No online rate board.
- If you agree, Aadhaar KYC, then cash — or bank transfer in some cases, and always for ₹2 lakh and above.
We are a buyer, not a jewellery showroom and not a gold-loan company. You are not obliged to sell after the test. If you walk away, you walk away with the same pieces you brought.
Gold and silver in the same visit
Bring both metals. Gold is tested on the touchstone; silver is weighed and tested at the same counter. Read the silver page if the lot is mostly articles or kolusu.
Documents and payment
Aadhaar on every sale. PAN (or Form 60) when the amount is above ₹2 lakh. A purchase bill is helpful but not required — purity is what the touchstone shows, not what a receipt from 1998 claimed. Read the longer notes on documents and on cash versus bank transfer.

We buy; we are not a gold exchange Chennai counter. We do not claim the highest price for old gold or the best price for old gold. The offer is weight × purity × that day’s market, explained at the scale.
Stones, wax and non-gold clasps are not gold, so they come off the net weight. There is no hidden extra cut. See how old gold price is calculated.
